Abstract

A lamination of metal wire layers forms an electromagnetic isolation structure. The metal wire layers are connected with each other by vias, so that a metal fence having a laminated structure is formed. The metal fence is provided so as to surround an element (e.g. a spiral inductor) that generates an electromagnetic field in an integrated circuit. The metal wire satisfies d <= lambda/8, WF >= 5delta, and L <= lambda/20, where delta is a skin depth of an electromagnetic wave, c is a velocity of light, f is an operating frequency of the integrated circuit, d is a lateral-direction size of a metal-fence region, WF is a surrounding-line width of the metal fence, L is an interval between the vias, and lambda=c/f is a wavelength of a signal. With this arrangement, it is possible to decrease electromagnetic coupling noises and coupling noises caused via the substrate.

It is well known to reduce the noise of such digital switches through the surface of the substrate and use Lai Jing in the design of the CM0S hybrid device. However, in the case where the sensitivity of the same crystal is several micro-V) will decrease in the case of Kushiro, interference will occur between the Kushiro blocks (the electrical plane of the substrate and the magnetic dissipation above the substrate). The degree of coupling increases with the frequency used. Furthermore, among RF passive components having a large area like a spiral inductor, the 'Shi Xi substrate' and the passive components and adjacent devices are easy to produce.

The structure of this conventional example (EMC EXPO 1996) is essentially the same as the technology used for PCBs (technology that isolates circuits and reduces EMI) (nFUTURE EMC TRENDS IN PC BOARD DESIGN1, June 16, 1986 ~ On the 19th, EMC EXPO 1996, the URL &lt; URL: http://www.blackmagic.com/ses/bruceg/EMC/futurePCB.html&gt;) (referred to as Non-Patent Document 3) was similar. However, the above method has the following problems. The larger space between the interfering devices will increase the chip size and cost. Placing a patterned GND shield under the spiral inductor will reduce the Q factor of the spiral sensor. 92300.doc 1241663 In addition, although this technology is effective in the RF frequency range (reducing the consumption through the substrate), it has no effect on suppressing electromagnetic consumption (magnetic laying on the upper part of the substrate). In addition, the technology of Non-Patent Document 2 is not interchangeable with a general CMOS process, and as a result, it is an expensive process. In addition, the technique of Patent Document 1 suppresses noise for metal wiring. For this reason, although the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1 or Patent Document 2 can shield metal wires, it cannot suppress pick-up noise and coupling noise from the silicon substrate or from the silicon substrate. Moreover, none of these technologies deal with interactions such as active transistors coupled with amplification. For example, Fig. 12 shows a test pattern including a transistor adjacent to a spiral inductor. When applying a signal to a spiral inductor, it is ideal not to generate any coupling. The signal measured at the drain of the transistor should be zero. However, it can be seen from Fig. 13 that the relationship between the degree of coupling (S21) between the input and the output and the frequency can be obviously not coupled. It can be seen that, even in the case where the transistor is ^ FF (Id), the degree of input-output coupling is increased in the high-frequency region due to the switching of the bypass path through the substrate side. On the other hand, '1 crystal As a result of this situation, the signal will be transmitted by the spiral inductor for electromagnetic coupling with the gate line of the transistor. In the mixed signal 1C, the Deep N-well technology is generally used to suppress the digital noise passing through the Shixi substrate. In this way, "Deep N well technology can be applied to the spiral inductor and transistor structure of Figure ⑵ τ, the value of the combination of input and output u 1 as 'no,' has the effect of reducing about 5 db, but for 92300.doc 1241663 The demanding application device of LNA is still far from enough. [Summary of the invention] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a spear that is interchangeable with standard IC spears, and can reduce the electromagnetic properties or lighten the substrate. The integrated circuit of noise. In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the integrated circuit of the present invention has the following characteristics: the metal wiring layer is stacked with an electromagnetic isolation structure; the above metal wiring layer is formed by a plurality of metal wiring layers. The channels are connected to each other, and a metal thumb bar of a laminated structure is formed by the above-mentioned metal wiring layers connected by the channels. The above metal grid is arranged so as to surround the target element, and if the skin depth of the electromagnetic wave is set (surface layer) Depth) is 5, let e be the speed of light, set the action rate of the integrated circuit to f, the lateral dimension of the metal barrier area to be d, the width of the enclosing line of the metal barrier to be WF, the channel spacing to be L, When the wavelength of the signal is λν / f, dm WF ^ 5§, Lg / 2 (). By the above-mentioned structure ie, regulate the electromagnetic wave (surface depth) δ, the lateral dimension d of the metal fence area, and the surrounding of the metal fence The relationship between the line width wf, the channel spacing L, and the wavelength λ of the signal. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the electromagnetic properties or the coupling noise through the substrate. In addition, the integrated circuit related to the present invention is characterized in that it has the above structure A guard ring including a first diffusion layer having the same conductivity type as the substrate is provided directly under the metal fence, and the guard ring is connected to a fixed potential and is electrically isolated from the metal fence. According to the above structure, the metal Fence A guard ring having a first diffusion layer of the same conductivity type as the substrate is provided on the side. The guard ring is connected to a fixed potential and is electrically isolated from the metal fence. Therefore, except for the coupling produced by the above structure, 92300.doc 1241663 In addition to miscellaneous fruits, it can more effectively reduce electromagnetic properties or pass through the substrate. &Amp; Also, the integrated circuit related to the sun and the moon of this issue, in addition to the above structure, is characterized by being contained below the above-mentioned target component The well connected to the substrate. The above-mentioned structure of the human X Kang 'makes the well smaller than the target component to be connected to the substrate ...

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figs. 1 to 10. The present invention relates to an electromagnetic isolation constructor for providing circuit blocks in integrated circuits, and more particularly for reducing electromagnetic coupling in the RF frequency band region. 92300.doc -10- 1241663 In addition, this structure is an effective technology for standard CMOS, BiCMOS, or bipolar processes. The configuration examples described below are those that can prevent electromagnetic coupling and crosstalk of the substrate in the high frequency region. Here, the circuit block is a high-frequency device that is an element (target element) that generates an electromagnetic field in a integrated circuit, such as a passive part such as a spiral inductor. The configuration related to the embodiment of this embodiment is a method of suppressing electromagnetic coupling between circuit blocks and wiring between interconnected circuit blocks by using a grounded metal barrier. Metal fences are all conductors and can be connected to a fixed (constant) potential such as Vdd or GND through metal wiring. Metal barriers are stacked with metal wiring layers and are connected by vias. Furthermore, the metal barriers completely or partially surround the circuit blocks. The mask layer, for example, P +, N +, and N-well diffusion layers connected to the GND potential, suppresses coupling through the substrate at high frequencies. Furthermore, to suppress gate coupling after the transistor, Deep N wells can be used in combination with metal fences. In addition, the following constitutional examples can be manufactured by the well-known general process (manufacturing process). Therefore, the description of the manufacturing steps is omitted. That is, the present invention does not require any additional processes or deformations of the processes. Furthermore, the present invention The structure is carefully designed and correctly arranged when forming a metal wiring layer or a diffusion layer in a normal 1C process. The electromagnetic isolation structure is described in detail below. Furthermore, although a 4-layer metal process is used in the following description As an example for illustration, of course, it can also be applied to any number of metal wiring layers. Figs. 1 and 2 respectively show an electromagnetic metal barrier 20 surrounding the spiral inductor in the integrated circuit 21 of the present application. Fig. 3 shows the metal barrier structure in detail in one of the applications of the present invention. Here, right below the metal fence, 92300.doc 11 1241663 is the metal gate ditch * μ, Lu,-spoonful Yau: Looking at the same position as the metal fence, there is also a base plate made of Ishiba! It has a retainer with a 3rd first expansion 〒M, an electric expansion layer, and a metal fence Laminate all metal cloth The layer is used in the same way as the guard ring 3. In addition, the middle 2 means that the element is separated from the turtle-° off the zone 70 pieces of isolation area 2 is isolated by general components with a process of 0 to 2. The metal barrier 20 is stacked on the metal wiring layer, and is connected to each other in the vertical direction through the perforations 8 and κ, which completely or partially surround the circuit block. In the example of FIG. 2, the metal barrier surrounds the spiral inductor. 12. The value of the gap between the metal barrier 11 and the spiral inductor 12 as the circuit block is shown in Figure υ, and the circuit block surrounded by the metal barrier should be selected (in the case of Figure 2 it is The value of the electrical characteristics of the spiral inductor) is particularly important. That is, the above-mentioned gap SF must be determined according to the actual application, and the more typical is SF &gt; 25 μιη. In addition, the width WF should be selected to reduce the metal fence sufficiently. Resistors and the influence of electromagnetic fields. In addition, the effectiveness of metal barriers used to suppress electromagnetic coupling also depends on the width of the metal fence in the laminated structure and the distance of the perforation. In principle, the surface layer (the depth of the electromagnetic field Degree Set it to $. That is, the skin depth of the 3 series electromagnetic waves (surface depth), that is, the maximum depth from the surface of the integrated circuit that generates electromagnetic depletion. At this time, the formula δ = {ρ / (πμ: 〇} 1/2 (here, ρ is the resistivity of the metal fence, μ is the magnetic permeability, and f is the operating frequency ... 1 to 5 GHz). If the wavelength of the fastest signal in the circuit is: λ = c / f, 92300 .doc -12- 1241663 only need to meet the following conditions: the width of the metal barrier WF-5δ, the channel spacing $ λ / 20 can almost eliminate the influence of electromagnetic coupling. Here c represents the speed of light. Moreover, as a typical For the performance value, when using A1Cu material with a thickness of 0.6 to ΐ5, use WF> 5pm. In addition to A1Cu, for example,

Applicable to the same type 5 structure as that shown in the figure (that is, a structure with a spiral inductor surrounded by a metal fence). As a result, compared with the previous pattern of the metal-free barrier fence, a reduction of the input-to-input coupling ratio of about 20 dB can be achieved. The s-parameter is based on the propagation of electromagnetic waves, where ⑵ in this case means isolation. The lower the S21, the better the isolation, and the smaller the influence of substrate crosstalk. The height of the metal barrier as a whole can be set to a metal wiring layer that is at least the same level as the component that generates the electromagnetic field. The number of layers can be determined according to the design, and the thickness of one layer, the height of the channel, and the diameter of the channel can be determined according to the manufacturing process. In the above-mentioned constitution of FIG. 1, the metal gate of the laminated metal wiring layer can be appropriately changed. In addition, the effect of the fence for reducing the electromagnetic coupling between adjacent circuit blocks depends on the number of metal wiring layers stacked. Because the circuit block is a high-frequency device, and its characteristics will be deteriorated due to the parasitic capacitance with the substrate, etc., if the enclosed circuit block, that is, the component that generates the electromagnetic field, uses the top layer, it ’s the whole reason &amp; &amp; y ^ When it is formed by a wiring layer, as a barrier, instead of setting the retaining ring 3 and the bottom metal wiring (lowest metal wiring layer) including a diffusion layer 3 and a diffusion layer, it is better not to set J The upper metal wiring layer is 92300.doc 1241663 effective. That is, as the metal wiring layer used for the metal fence, it is necessary to be a metal wiring layer of the same layer or more as the element generating the electromagnetic field. Figure 5 shows the use of a metal isolation barrier without a guard ring 3 or a bottom metal wiring layer including a diffusion layer. Figure 6 is a summary of the two spiral inductors provided on the uppermost metal wiring layer as described above. In this case, the test result of the combination degree S21 (dB) between the input and output of the two spiral inductors. Here, the two spiral inductors are separated by 10 gm. Among them, the spiral inductor is surrounded by metal made of different metal wiring layers (first metal wiring layer to fourth metal wiring layer). Furthermore, the first metal wiring layer, the second metal material layer, the third metal wiring layer, and the fourth metal wiring layer are in this order from the surface to the distant place. The metal wiring layer closest to the substrate is the first metal wiring layer. Both "0" and "◎" indicate that the metal wiring layer is formed, and the blank area indicates that the metal wiring layer is not formed. It is set to 0 from the fourth metal wiring layer side, and "第一" from the first metal wiring layer side. In order to further improve the effect of electromagnetic isolation, especially in the case of high frequencies, as shown in FIG. 7, if it is combined with the N well 30 (second diffusion layer) below the circuit block surrounded by a metal fence, More effective. The area of the N well 30 is the same as the area surrounded by the metal fence 2 () (ie, the area of the circuit block) (for example, equal). Furthermore, Fig. 7 shows a case where a material is provided below the circuit block and the substrate is _ ', but the opposite can also be done by setting a p-well below the circuit block and setting the substrate to Nsub. 92300.doc • 14-1241663 Furthermore, as another modification of the basic structure, electromagnetic isolation may be combined with the low-resistance layer 40. In this case, the low-resistance layer 40 is connected to a fixed potential as shown in FIG. 8 as the conductive 3L in the substrate region. Fixed potential or GND, connected by metal wiring. Furthermore, the low-resistance layer is formed by a highly-conductive self-aligned metal silicide diffusion layer or a metal: chemically-crystallized polysilicon layer. In addition, this structure can also be used in the case where the enclosed circuit block is not mounted on the substrate like a spiral inductor. If the size (length of one side) of the circuit area to be protected (enclosed) is set to d and the area of the circuit area is set to, d = Area1 / 2. In addition, the relationship between the electromagnetic isolation barrier 襕 depends on the operating frequency (ie, wavelength in =). Furthermore, the above formula d holds when the circuit area to be protected (enclosed) is, for example, a square, and other than that, it should be protected. The (enclosed) circuit area can also be the same when it is circular, for example—the calculation formula is not square or circular, and the value of d is not as good as ^ ^ the case where the field is circular. It is formed into a circle, and its size is 4 diameter. If the right is / 8, electromagnetic radiation cannot be removed from the metal thumb. It does not need to be a conventional example (patent literature takes the metal cover at the bottom or the top. 1C of the dielectric layer, at c ~ 1.5x1 (^ cm / s, f = 5GHz, ^ 3cm, when the size of the circuit area is or the top metal mask layer, only the ":" and the road blocks do not need to have no bottom Electromagnetic compatibility. Θ 1 fine "magnetic fence and surrounded, you can suppress the light and high frequency region between circuit blocks, mainly using the substrate 92300.doc -15-1241663 as a pathway. In order to reduce the substrate Coupled, the above metal isolation barrier can be integrated with the circuit structure built into the silicon area The combination of elements (such as spiral inductors and capacitors). As shown in Fig. 9 in this area, even if only ^^ well 51 and manholes are configured as "wells with moderately doped (tabs), sufficient suppression effects can still be obtained. : That is, as shown in FIG. 9, although the circuit blocks 25 are not doped, the substrate resistance is increased by setting the substrate 1 to Psub, so that the degree of doping is only in the middle of the system. It is also possible to sufficiently suppress substrate noise. As a result, the silicon region between the circuit blocks 25 becomes a substrate with a high resistivity, and the impedance of the coupling substrate is increased, thereby reducing the interference between the circuits in the high-frequency region. Among the plurality of elements having a metal barrier (circuit block 25), a substrate 1 can be configured therebetween. Also, as shown in FIG. 10, among the elements having a metal barrier structure, other elements without a metal barrier structure can be formed. The components can be constituted as substrate 1. Patent Document 2; the stub is displayed in the lateral direction (in the stack of metal wiring layers) surrounding the metal wiring layer of the circuit or component, and at least on or under the top of the circuit or component by metal Wiring layer There is a two-dimensional surface. Furthermore, the 'metal stack in Patent Document 2 is connected to the diffusion layer of the substrate. On the other hand, the metal stack structure of the present invention does not need to be connected to the diffusion layer of the substrate. This allows the design to be made Simplified. In addition, the metal barrier of the present invention surrounds a circuit or component in a lateral dimension (1 is 014/8), so there is no need to use a top metal mask layer. As described above, the present invention effectively suppresses RF circuits The magnetic, electrical valley, and substrate coupling between blocks. Therefore, the electromagnetic isolation technology of metal does not require any special process of 92300.doc -16-1241663. The result is interchangeable with the standard process. It has been confirmed &lt; For effective electromagnetic isolation. That is, the critical circuit block P makes the interval small and still achieve electromagnetic isolation. As a result, the wafer size can be further reduced. Furthermore, the specific implementation forms or examples in the detailed description of the invention are only those that clearly explain the technical content of the present invention, and are not limited to the specific examples but explained in a narrow sense. They can be interpreted in the spirit and scope of the present invention. Within the scope of the patent application disclosed later, various changes were implemented.
